10 the greatest enemy OF the poor, the
cause Of their poverty and the him
drance Of their progress. 1t is
strange that avowed champions of
the rights Of labor, like Henry
George and Mr.. Powderly, and their
coadjntors, do not see this and seek
first the extinction Of the saloon as
indispensable 10 any permanent i'm
provement in the condition Of the
wage-working classes.
Il may be true that the poor have
grievances which might be removed
by . better industrial system; that,
rs compared with the employing
class, the great mass Of wage-work-
ers are poor because they do not get
q fair share of the products Of thei,
labor; but their enforced poyery is
not 30 desperate as to afford any ex-
cuse for their drink habits. Be.
cause they cannot get all they want
or oil they are Justly entitled to, il
no reason why they should throw
away what they have III drink.
With sobriety and industry they
may still be above want, and have
enough to support their families in
comparative comfort; enough in this
land Of free schools to give Their
children an education and a better
start in life than they have had,
Poverty under such conditions hai
many elevations that make life
miserable; but poverty with drink
means squalor, want, despair, and
crime.

INCIDENT Of the Storm.

Tho violence Of Saturdays blizzard 10
partially illustrated by an incident that
occurred At MIR. Thompson Walkers
place short distance northwest Of this
CITY. The we'll whore bis cattle and
horses are watered is in tho open, and
II Is his custom to lot tho animals loose
and drive them to the we'll. Accordingly
OIL SATURDAY morning he loosed his
horses aud colts, ton In number, and
drove them out Of the stable. As soon
- the storm struck them the horses ap-
pesred to lose all control over them
solves. They were swept out Of sight In
less than minutes time. Mr.. Walker,
however. believed that ono human life
was worth more than ton head Of horses,
and wisely refrsined from undertaking
. search. Next day whom the blow was
over the owner looked for bis horses aud
soon found them.
1t appears that they had gone with the
storm but short distance whom they
came to the fair grounds. Tho snow 10
drifted about the fair ground fence ON
each side about the height Of tho fence,
leaving on the outside tho usual narrow
passage which tho wind current kept
clear Of snow. Into this passage the
horses had been driven and for twenty
hours had walked round and round
the ground, and there Mr.. Walker for
tunately found them all safe and sound.
